However, he added that this would not deter his party from keeping the issue alive and continuing their efforts.

I have said this many times before the elections that hoping for the restoration of Article 370 from the people who snatched it will be foolish," he said."But we will keep this issue alive. We will continue to talk on this and hope that tomorrow there will be a change of government in the country, there will be a new setup with whom we can discuss this and get something for J-K."
